Stardock annonce que son bien connu 4X souffle aujourd’hui sa quatrième bougie, et pour l’occasion l’éditeur offre deux choses aux joueurs. D’une part une mise à jour passant le jeu en v3.7, patch prenant en compte les demandes de la communauté, donc en résumé des optimisations du gameplay, de l’IA, de l’interface, des performances, puis la correction de divers bugs, afin globalement d’améliorer plus encore la qualité de jeu. D’autre part l’éditeur propose une très belle réduction de -85 % sur le jeu de base (-70 % pour l’édition Gold), soit la possibilité de découvrir ce sympathique 4X pour moins de 4 euros. Un prix… eXtra, à n’en point douter.
Attention, cette offre ne dure que jusqu’à demain en début de soirée, dépêchez-vous si vous souhaitez en profiter !
